The Truth About Debt and Being Debt-Free | Dr. Grace Stephens | TEDxMint Street

Global debt is at a historic high, indicating how uncontrolled consumerism leads to uncontrolled indebtedness, says best-selling author and transformation agent Grace Alexis Stephens. In this practical, timeless, and inspiring talk, she shares profound insight from her journey – from being burdened with one million dollars in debt to becoming debt-free. Dr. Grace Alexis Stephens is currently Chancellor of Generations College, where she once served as one of the youngest college presidents in America. She is the first woman to hold the presidency post at this 120-year-old institution. Prior to joining Generations, Stephens held positions at Duke University as Associate Dean for Undergraduate Education and as Executive Director of the Comprehensive Education Institute for Duke University Health System. She was an executive-level business developer, profit and loss manager for Kaplan, Inc., and a business relationship manager for Goldman Sachs & Co. on Wall Street. A native New Yorker, Stephens received her B.A. from the State University of New York; an M.A. from New York University; an Ed.M. from Columbia University; an Ed.D. from the University of Pennsylvania; and she studied at the Institute for Higher Education at Harvard University. She is an ordained pastor and holds credentials at the doctoral level from seminary.
